Inventory Management Built for Electronics Assembly
Track thousands of components, manage complex multi-level BOMs, control revisions, streamline assembly workflows, and maintain complete traceability—all in one platform designed for electronics manufacturers and EMS providers.
Challenges Electronics Assembly Companies Know Too Well
Managing thousands of components, complex BOMs, and multiple product revisions with generic tools creates problems that slow production and increase defects.
BOM Complexity Overwhelm
Managing multi-level BOMs with hundreds of components, alternates, and constant engineering changes across spreadsheets leads to wrong parts being kitted and production errors.
Component Traceability Gaps
When a component fails or a supplier issues a recall, tracing which assemblies and serial numbers contain that lot takes far too long without proper systems.
Thousands of Part Numbers
Resistors, capacitors, ICs, connectors—electronics assembly means managing thousands of SKUs with different suppliers, alternates, and minimum order quantities.
Revision Control Chaos
Engineering change orders, BOM revisions, and part substitutions happen constantly. Without version control, you end up building the wrong revision or mixing parts.
Manual Kitting Errors
Kitting components for work orders manually from spreadsheets means wrong quantities, missing parts, and production delays that cost time and money.
Compliance Documentation Burden
Maintaining RoHS certificates, REACH compliance, conflict mineral reports, and component datasheets manually is a full-time job that still leaves gaps.
How Fiddle Solves Electronics Assembly Challenges
Built for the unique needs of electronics manufacturers and contract assemblers, Fiddle provides the component tracking, BOM management, and workflow tools you need to scale.

See why growing electronics manufacturers choose Fiddle for their inventory, BOM management, and production needs.
Managing 8,000+ component part numbers and dozens of product revisions used to be chaos. Fiddle gave us real control over our BOMs and inventory. Our kitting accuracy went from 94% to 99.5% in three months.
When a capacitor lot failed in the field, we traced all affected serial numbers within an hour. That used to take us two days of spreadsheet work. Our customers trust our traceability now.
The BOM revision control alone was worth switching to Fiddle. No more building the wrong revision or mixing engineering changes. We finally have the version control we needed.
